Cheating
I remember the days when it was hard work to create ones very own "website." That was before the era of blogs, eons ago - I know. Anyway, now you see all of these sophisticated, cute, and creative blogs. BUT, don't be deceived! No one actually writes their own HTML code or even knows what the heck HTML is. (here is a great link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML ). In fact, nobody even uses some kind of great software like DreamWeaver (which is kind of cheating too, but better than blogs). It is quite depressing. And the most disappointing thing is that I, in order to keep up with the Jones' or at least with Mrs. Jones (because I get the feeling that it is my female friends and associates that do most of the blogging (at least in the family communications/photo type blog world (I know I am going to get burned for the whole female thing))) -sorry about the parentheses - maybe dashes are better?- Ok, where was I? Oh, I, in order to keep up with the Jones', must fall in line and shamelessly copy someone else's HTML work and plug it into a system, i.e. Blogger, so that my blog will not be shunned by the other cooler and more creative blogs. If only I had time to truly shine? Yeah, yeah, someday . . . . . someday (in a softer almost day-dream-like tone).
I love this photo of Hallie and Haddli at the football game in Snowflake. I just can't get over how beautiful Hallie is. Even though she is freezing, has two jackets on, has sat through an entire football game, and it looks like some wet wipes in her hands, she is beautiful. All of my girls are beautiful. I have truly been blessed! (At least till High School . . . maybe Jr. High . . maybe - aaauuggghh!!)
Well, I have decided that I love posting photos on facebook. Granted, nobody looks at them . . . and not that anyone will ever read this either (although my psychiatrist says it helps to talk it through anyway) I have decided to put a stop to my mindless uploading of photos. Ok, ok, not so fast, that is clearly a dumb idea! There is absolutely nothing wrong with your hard drive puking photos onto facebook. Besides, when the drive finally qeels over and dies at least you have something to remember - and even though it is digital vomit it is better then a wasteland of nothingness. So, anyway, just in case you are still reading this entry, the point is that I am going to try not to use my blog just to post photos . . - - Maybe photos with comments???
